Our kelp contains over 65 minerals and vitamins and can be used in different forms for applications in the food industry, agriculture, feed, construction and many more.
Seaweed is the fastest growing carbon storing plant in the world – but conventional seaweed production only captures 11% of the carbon long term.
That’s why we are working towards capturing 100% of the carbon in our farms.
We are establishing a reliable commercial option for kelp seed in British Columbia.
We are dedicated to improving alternative technologies and methods that differ from the industry’s conventional methods.
At the same time, we use our network of experts from around the globe to secure our association of farmers, premium and CPS accredited seed all year round.
We support our farmers in all stages: from site selection and design to deployment and maintenance. Our services assure a crop productivity of at least 5 kg/m of farmline.
The CPS hands-on methods and technology, coupled with scientific knowledge and understanding of the biology of kelp cultivation, set our farmers up for success.
When it’s that time of the year, we provide the vessels and harvesting technology to efficiently handle our farmers’ sea vegetables. We manage our crops in a timely manner within the optimal harvest window.
Thanks to our advances and European technologies we have the capacity to process a large biomass of kelp each season. Our processing methods obtain optimal nutrient and taste profiles of the kelp.
All our products are developed to have high nutritional content, applicability, taste and aesthetics.
We hold ourselves accountable for producing kelp products that are exceptionally high in quality as well as ethically and sustainably sourced, harvested and processed.
We work with food scientists, holistic nutritionists, doctors, and experts in sustainability. Together we develop premium products that address today’s unique challenges with simple solutions.
Our team is situated in British Columbia, Belgium, Germany, and Spain. We work tirelessly with our employees and partners to ensure the best logistics for our products – no matter where you live or work.
As quickly as kelp takes up carbon, it is also just as quick to release it back out to the atmosphere – typically within the same year.
Conventional kelp farms are therefore only slowing down the carbon cycle by recycling carbon dioxide. They do not function as an effective carbon sink.
At CPS we engineer innovative methods to capture temporarily sequestered carbon. We strive to store carbon longterm for up to 400 years.
We work closely with our partners to create unique seaweed products for various applications and different industries. Our premium products are eco-friendly and help fight climate change.
At Canadian Pacifico Seaweeds we challenge the status quo with our team and integrate all three pillars of sustainability into our products: environmental, economic and social issues. All that we do is backed by science – and seaweed is our base.
From harvest to processing and consumption – our products bring profits and benefits along the way.
Our seaweed is cultivated and harvested by hand. We care for and work with the sea ecology.
We stay curious about new opportunities in science and new ways to leverage seaweed’s benefits.
We enable small scale farmers to unite and streamline the seaweed industry towards a more efficient and effective model for CO2 sequestration. All of our seaweed farmers earn far above industry-average, providing them with the financial abilities to maintain direction of their business.
